Buddha Tooth Relic Temple and Museum

The temple and museum always hosts different exhibits on its level 2 exhibition hall. Today, the Sand Mandala was completed & on display.

Completed Sand Mandala displayed on the 1st level main shrine which will be dismantled on the 26th March.

On its 2nd level of museum, a section of the hall has been devoted to a brief introduction on Tibetan Buddhism, Sand Mandala and the makers of the Sand Mandala from Kopan Nunnery (Nepal) while another section displayed different representations of Avalokitesvara (Guanyin) with brief explainations.




If you are tired after viewing the exhibition, you may drop-by its well-hidden tea house at the left end corner of the hall, Lotus Heart Tea House for a relaxing tea-break.

I am glad to know that with the completion of its theatre at Basement one, they had started a series of weekend Dharma Talk programmes.

For those interested in the making of the Sand Mandala, you may like to attend this coming Sunday (23 Mar)'s talk at 3-5pm.
